This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

For me it's the small size. They are so big now I can't fit them in my pocket or use them with one hand.

100% my pain too. These gigantic rectangles are so unwieldy to hold, particularly with one hand. There was one phone I saw recently that touted it's "compact" size of 6.1 inches. Ridiculous

Yeah, I seem to only have four choices atm, Google pixel 8, galaxy s23, Asus zenfone 10 or an iPhone. They are all expensive and I don't want the iphone because I would have to change ecosystems. I'd prefer NOT to buy a new phone but mine keeps messing up in the middle of a call and requiring a reboot.

Check xcover 5 : 5.3 screen, removable battery, resistant to 1.5m fall and waterproof

Thank you for the suggestion. It looks like this is a two year old phone. I'm a little concerned about security updates.
